Zehryo Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 The only FPS limiter I've found is a mod, two files that must to be copied in game's folder in order to work. The problem is that I'm using a FXAA Injector which has a d3d9.dll file, while the FPS limiter tries to overwrite it with its own. It's pretty obvious the Injector will stop working, if I replace its d3d9.dll with another one which is totally different. Any other FPS limiter, around? One that can work with Skyrim and doesnt modify/replace any game/mod file? NOTE: wouldnt be that bad to leave my GPU follow the refresh rate by setting VSync ON, just....my monitor is a 120Hz one!!!!! Indoor areas are a constant 110-120FPS, my cards get hot pretty fast!! >.< Help!! =p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunnie Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Setting VSync to on will actually attempt to limit the frame rate to 30fps, and then you can set triple buffering to on which should smooth it out. However, if your GPU is getting too hot, you really should think about why it is getting too hot and fix that issue. Are you overclocking it? Is the fan intake on the card restricted because it's sitting next to another card? Is the fan running at a proper speed to actually cool the internal heat sinks? Seriously, just running the game under normal conditions should not be causing a GPU overheat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, just running the game under normal conditions should not be causing a GPU overheat. The cardS (SLI) get hot (and fans get noisy) because when I'm indoor my FPS shoot up to 120FPS!!! When I'm outdoor, especially watching heavy landscapes, the FPS go down to 30-80 and the cards always stay pretty quite and "cool". Just to give it a try, I've changed my monitor's refresh rate from 120 to 60Hz. Along with VSync, this gives the game some sort of FPS cap which works pretty well and cards stay "cool 'n' quite". Just I'd prefer to not have to change the refresh rate every time I change game.... NOTE: my aim is having a 60 FPS cap without changing the monitor's refresh rate.

Zehryo Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 www.venetubo.com/fsx/FPS_Limiter_0.2.rar There you go. Thank you. I havent tried it, yet, but I had already read about it. For some reason I thought Skyrim to be DX10 and that this limiter (DX9 compatible) couldnt handle it. Silly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
